“The Turkish government’s measures with regards to Syria are against the international law and conventions and Ankara should put an end to these acts as soon as possible in order not to be hated more by the Syrian public opinion,” Qazanfarabadi said on Saturday.

The Iranian lawmaker went on to say that Ankara has become an accomplice to the West’s interventionist policies in order to make trivial and temporary profits, but in the long term, the Turkish government will lose its credibility among the regional people.

The lawmaker further noted that many of the Western supporters of the militants in Syria have withdrawn from their previous stances after they saw that the Syrian army could successfully locate and annihilate terrorist groups.
